the option to send as text message does not come, It used too. I have been message back and forth with android users forever, the last time was tuesday. I have seen the option to send as text, it does not come up even though sms, mms is on. I have restarted iphone twice.

SMS is a phone carrier feature, contact them and see why you can't use a service that you pay for.

there has been no problem with my carrier EVER, AT&T. this problem started with this last IOS 16.5 update. I was able to send messages to any and every Wednesday.

Again text message is a phone carrier feature, contact ATT to resolve your issue.
